Abstract:

The biotransformation of paclitaxel (TaxolⓇ) by the cell suspension cultures of Rauwolfia serpentina (L.) Benth. et Kurz. were investigated. Three Paclitaxel-based intracellular metabolites were detected from the cell filter cake and were, by high field 1H-NMR and MS data, identified as 10-deacetyltaxol, baccatin Ⅲ, and 10-deacetylbaccatin Ⅲ. No glucosidated or hydroxylated derivatives were checked out in this incubation experiment.

Key words: biotransformation, cell culture, Paclitaxel, taxanes, Rauwolfia serpentina
